Jesus Is A Hobo |
Jesus is a hobo on a fast freight outta Denver, huddled up under a twin stack |
his back |
Against the rain. |
He’s hoping to make the west coast his food is running low. |
He’s been |
Traveling on these roads for 2000 years or more |
Yr gonna need me, yr gonna need me |
But can you find me, where you look |
Yr gonna need me, yr gonna need me |
You can’t always see the truth |
Jesus is a hobo in a jungle near LA, where nobody really knows him even if they |
know |
His face. |
They’ll stare into his eyes a disciple from the past but the moment’s |
gone and |
Lost in the engine’s long low whine. |
Jesus is a hobo he never left us here, |
caught a fast |
One from Calvary and he’s been riding ever since |
Yr gonna need me, yr gonna need me |
But can you find me, where you look |
Yr gonna need me, yr gonna need me |
You can’t always see the truth |
Jesus is a hobo riding south outta St. Paul seeing a cathedral through the |
snowflakes |
And bracing against the cold. |
When he gets down to Rock Island maybe there he’ll |
Let ‘em know that underneath his coveralls he wears a purple robe |
Yr gonna need me, yr gonna need me |
But can you find me, where you look |
Yr gonna need me, yr gonna need me |
You can’t always see the truth |
